Important The Ridley for SSB4 Thread - End of an Era

[Deleted member]

I made a moveset a long time ago. I could unearth it if need be.

Me too!

Moveset cycle?

Moveset cycle. (if @ Snagrio could do the honors).

Guys... I just realized something.

Ridley HAS to be revealed before the CoroCoro announcement.


Its been confirmed CoroCoro is explaining how all the announced characters and stages work. This includes PYROSPHERE. I think we're getting Ridley announced August 6th.

Well to be completely honest with you, Sakurai will probably just make sure that they only briefly talk about the Pyrosphere just to make even more speculation.

Oh $!%@. Here I thought this CoroCoro was gonna be a boring rehash, but yeah, Pyrosphere.

Well, I can actually see this being really inconclusive both ways. If he's not a stage hazard, people will argue that he *could* be an assist or something. I'd be pretty bamboozled, but it's possible. What I find to be more likely is the event where they do show a Hazaridley. Between Alfonzo and "It's a clone! Clones are already known to be in Smash!" there could still be quite a bit of hope to fuel the Ridley fire especially if they put in some specific version of him.

You preferred Wizardglory's I believe, but this seems to be the most realistic moveset, IMO.

I can already imagine what Corocoro says about Pyrosphere
"This is the pyrosphere, something is hiding here" and never show any photos of the "boss"
I don't think Sakurai would let them waste the chance to hype Ridley, either there is gonna be a direct before Corocoro is launch and officially confirm/deconfirm Ridley or they will be vague about it

 

[JaidynReiman]

Didn't they said that they would only talk about the 3ds stages?

Are they? Hmm... If it is only 3DS, I suppose.. ugh, so annoying...

 

[Nietona]

Yeeeep, only 3DS stages. If his role isn't revealed in an August Direct, we're in this for the long haul.

 

[JaidynReiman]

DAMNIT---... Ugh. I still think we'll get a Direct before the CoroCoro announcement.

This seems to be the case, false alarm everyone, Corocoro is not talking about Pyrosphere in august

 

[BeakyBird]

Moveset for Ridley.
Neutral B: Grab Player. Eat Player.
Forward B: Grab Player. Burn Player. Eat Player
Up B: Jump up while grabbing player. Drag against wall. Eat Player.
Down B: Cover player in salt and pepper. Eat Player.
Ridley wins.

On the bright side, we might hear about a Metroid 3DS stage!

 

[Deleted member]

I guarantee Pyrosphere being a Wii U stage is part of the reason we're getting 3DS info as opposed to Wii U info (the other part being that the 3DS version will be coming out in a month's time by the time that Corocoro is out).

All a part of Sakurai's Master Plan to troll the Ridley fans until the end of time, of course.

 

[ultimatekoopa]

On the bright side, we might hear about a Metroid 3DS stage!

And if we are lucky, they won't tease Ridley AGAIN in the metroid 3ds stage

No, I brought it up because I thought it was all stages, not all 3DS stages. CoroCoro is only showing off announced things, though.

No, not unless the Metroid 3DS stage is announced before hand.

EDIT: Then again, it is possible CoroCoro will announce the 3DS stage.

So...it's win-win!

 

[Garteam]

Nintendo's bringing Smash to Comic-Con on July 25 and 26, this actually seems like a pretty ideal place for a Ridley reveal.

I can't post the link because I don't have ten points yet, but it's on My Nintendo News.

 

[NintenRob]

It said they would reveal every 3DS stage didn't it? Does that mean we will get all the starting stages? I wonder what Metroid stage will be in?

And KIRBY. I want to see some FREAKING Kirby stages!

 

[BrigadeStuart]

Spoiler

that neutral B attack looks really balanced imo. encouraging players to go airborn when using the move. or just have it on the ground if your close enough. i like it!

 

[Nietona]

On the off chance that CoroCoro does show the 3DS Metroid stage, here's praying it won't be yet another generic lava stage. I cannot wait to see said 3DS Metroid stage whenever it's shown, though.

Nintendo's bringing Smash to Comic-Con? Sweeeeeet. Seems a bit too early for Ridley, but we can hope, right?

Mistranslation/misinterpretation, its actually just the already announced stages. They might announce new stages, but if anything, they'll just do the starting stages.

Ya, I kinda figured it would be a good place for Ridley because I don't think Comic-Con is too big in Japan (correct me if I'm wrong), thus making it ideal for Ridley's mostly North American/European support base, but ya, 3 newcomers in one month seems unlikely.

But...Anything Can Change!

Too soon...?

I'm thinking Comic-Con is going to involve some veteran reveals. I keep thinking Ness but I don't really have a reason.

I'm still banking on a Metroid-based Direct on August 6th dealing with the future of Metroid games like they were talking about at E3. Then they pull some cheesy line like "And concerning the future of Ridley..." and it cuts to a trailer.

You ain't wrong. I'd say it's either that, or reveal Ridley alongside a Japan fan favourite. Villains trailer is a thing that could still happen.

I think it's probably far too early for a Metroid-centric Direct, but I can see Metroid being talked about before Ridley is revealed, if he isn't secret or a hazard. We could even get another Smash-centric Direct to give the game some final hype now that it's nearly out.

 

[JaidynReiman]

It all depends. I could potentially see a bunch of newcomers being announced this month and next month because of how little time there is until the 3DS release. We'll have to see, though.

 

[OblivionWolf]

I-i-i-it was mainly a joke...guess not a very funny one, I'll try harder next time...

Yeah there was no teasing of Mewtwo prior, but what about Ridley's shadow, or Pac-Man's cloud?

As for moves that look like Water Shuriken, when he was charging it it looked a bit like blue Psychic Energy. Most people realized it wasn't BPE by the time it cut through Mario and Charizard's battle:

Not to mention that most people were blinded by the hype of Mewtwo. (KIM that that Charizard was a veteran so most people thought "yo, 2 vets").

Examples:

There's no doubt that Sakurai wanted to mess with us Mewtwo Fans (imo)

Bringing up the Greninja trailer and not showing this. (I joke, I joke, I kid, I kid)

 

[Snagrio]

We won't see anything Metroid related outside of Smash for a long time. The future games are pretty much in the blueprint stage at this point, if even that.

 

[SchAlternate]

And this.

I like how people are reading into things.

RIDLEY'S IN THE TREE!!!!!!1!!11!!!!

Hey Oblivion! Haven't seen you in forever!

Ya, at least the series is back on track. Not too many franchises can survive something with such bad word of mouth like Other M.

 

[Dalek_Kolt]

@ SchAlternate YOU SON OF A B@STARD

HOW DARE YOU GRENINJA ME! I SPENT LIKE 3 THREE MINUTES ON THIS PICTURE! 3! MINUTES!

(joking, you're cool)

 

[OblivionWolf]

Hey Oblivion! Haven't seen you in forever!

I missed you too. Been a little busy but I have been reading every page....Well skimming anyway.

Things are looking great for Ridley imo.

 

[UltimateWario]

I disagree. I think we'll see the first of the new games at next year's E3, if not a pure-CG trailer sooner just to announce the game.

 

[MischF]

We won't see anything Metroid related outside of Smash for a long time. The future games are pretty much in the blueprint stage at this point, if even that.

It was just a thought. I mean it would hype Ridley up for smash even more and probably transition some of that hype for Ridley to some hype for these new Metroid games coming.

 

[aldelaro5]

Well, I didn't think of this. So, hype music?

WE BELIEVE IN YOU RIDLEY!

No but seriously, a direct before August 6 is neat.

 

[AustarusIV]

I wouldn't put too much stock in a Ridley reveal on August. Most people believed that we would be getting a Fire Emblem newcomer back in April, and even earlier, a DK newcomer in February to commemorate the release of Tropical Freeze.

I really want to be wrong on this, but Chorus Kids (if they're really in) have just as much a chance as Ridley to be revealed then. The first Rhythm Heaven game came out in August 2006, which means they might be the newcomers revealed instead. Also, Hyrule Warriors is set to be released this August, giving us Ridley fans even more competition to deal with.

Basically, it's not going to be that easy to think Ridley will be revealed then.

I'm using this as hype music.

Also, quickie comic I made since no artist took me up on that "Ridley eating Gematsu followers" thing.

I am still going to hope for the best even if I expect a Legend of Zelda newcomer more.
